Spoon Rest To Keep Counters Clean
By Sandi/Poor But Proud
I drink a lot of tea and coffee during the day. To kill a tree for wooden, or waste plastic for stirrers is not on my list of "smart things to do". Neither, is washing spoons all day or wasting space on my tiny "coffee spotted" counters. So I compromised and found a free, washable and reusable solution.

This is a cute and simple "thumbs up" card that can be used for any special occasion. This card could be used for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Grandparents' card, birthday, or even as a Great Job, congratulations, for an awesome friend, teacher, etc. Just write the appropriate greeting for the occasion.

I have a Zenith high fidelity phonograph. Can anyone tell me what it might be worth or where I can look for the value? It works fine.
